Software for poultry operations.
Mule builds house and flock-level record systems for poultry and egg operations: production, mortality and feed tracked by house, field apps built for the barn, and dashboards that roll flock performance up automatically. Ohio and Indiana have large egg and poultry sectors, and this same record gap shows up across that whole world.
What we know about poultry operations.
Poultry operations track by flock and by house rather than by bird, which sounds simpler than herd or lot records but breaks in its own way: egg counts, mortality and feed numbers get logged on a clipboard at each house and then consolidated by hand at the end of the week, or rebuilt into a fresh spreadsheet at the start of every new flock cycle because the old one doesn't carry forward cleanly.
That rebuild-every-cycle pattern is the real cost. Nobody's comparing this flock's performance to the last one on anything more than memory, because the record itself doesn't persist in a form that makes the comparison easy.
Why a poultry operation picks Mule.
- 01House-level production, mortality and feed records that persist from one flock cycle to the next, instead of a spreadsheet rebuilt every time.
- 02Field apps built for the barn, working offline and syncing once you're back in signal range.
- 03Dashboards that roll house-level records up into flock performance automatically, so comparing this cycle to the last one is a real answer, not a guess.
- 04We bring your existing flock records in as part of the build, so history from past cycles comes with you.
What poultry operations usually need.
From poultry operations.
Do our house crews need signal to log daily counts?
No. The field app runs offline at the house, entries save to the device and sync automatically once you're back in range.
Our flock records are in a spreadsheet that gets rebuilt every cycle. Can you fix that?
Yes. We bring your existing records in as part of the build and structure the system so history persists from one flock cycle to the next instead of starting fresh every time.
Who owns the flock and production data?
You do. It's your operation's data, house by house and flock by flock, and we build the system around it. You keep it.
How is a build like this priced?
From your operation: how many houses, what you're tracking now, whether it's layers or broilers. There's no published price list; you describe it and get a real number back.
Do we need a website too?
Only if it helps you, especially if you sell eggs or birds direct. It's a smaller, separate line from the record system, and never the default push.
